Sleepbud II ability to mask low frequency noises such as car exhaust

[Crouhier]

Hello,

I just preordered the Bose sleepbud 2’s. The main reason I ordered these is to mask/cover Low frequency noises, specifically car exhaust noise. I live in a single family home. There is a neighbor a few houses down with a very loud exhaust that leaves for work very early in the morning. Traditional foam earplugs and a cheap white noise maker mask part of the sound but it can clearly be heard over these. I am trying these Earbuds in the hopes that it will mask a significant amount, if not all, of the intrusive exhaust noise so I can have peace of mind. I could not find anything specific relating to their performance against low frequency noises so I am hoping to learn more by posting here!

thanks,

craig

Hey Craig, 

Thank you for your post and welcome! 

The Sleepbuds have been designed for all stages of sleep — from the time you crawl into bed to unwind after a long day to when you roll over in the middle of the night. So you wake up refreshed. A partner’s sudden snore right next to you. Or a burst of laughter from the party upstairs. Unpredictable spikes or changes in sound are what interrupt your sleep. Bose noise-masking technology combines passive noise blocking with optimized noise-masking sounds to cover up disruptions that may otherwise wake you. 

I believe that the Sleepbuds II will help to block out the noise of the exhaust.
